tmuxp solves the panes / pains of managing workspaces.

Open to testers

tmuxp is still alpha code and needs a few more weeks until stable. See the Issues tracker to see known issues and for any other concerns.

• install tmux, at least version 1.8
• libyaml is installed for your distribution.

Install tmuxp:

$ pip install tmuxp

CLI Commands

tmuxp uses switch-client for you if already in a TMUX client.

$ tmuxp attach-session<tab> # current sessions

Kill session

$ tmuxp kill-session<tab> # current sessions

Load a session configuration from a YAML or JSON file.

$ tmuxp load<tab> # configs in config dir, current directory

Convert a session config JSON <=> YAML:

$ tmuxp convert<tab> # configs in config dir, current directory

Experimental: Import configuration from teamocil or tmuxinator:

$ tmuxp import teamocil<tab> # configs in ~/.teamocil dir
$ tmuxp import tmuxinator<tab> # configs in ~/.tmuxinator dir

See installing bash completion to get bash, zsh and tcsh completion working on your machine.

load tmux sessions from yaml and json

Load from ~/.tmuxp.yaml or ~/.tmuxp.json in current directory.

$ tmuxp load .

$ tmuxp load ./myconfig.yaml
$ tmuxp load ../myconfig.yaml
$ tmuxp load /var/www/mywebproject/myconfig.yaml

$ mkdir ~/.tmuxp and make a file ~/.tmuxp/test.yaml.

session_name: 2-pane-vertical
windows:
  - window_name: my test window
    panes:
